Just leafing through the Sunday turbine yesterday and a major development ad caught my eye, its called HSQ(Heuston South Quarter). I went on the website http://www.hsq.ie and there’s little or nothing extra there in terms of detail. I’m a bit confused
Is it part of a major build with Heuston Gate?
What’s the density of the project because i saw no building under 5 storeys on the site and there’s a sort of mini-Burj Al Arab in the middle.
Is this wnat all those cranes around Islandbridge/ Inchicore are building? I thought they were there for the Old Chocolate development?
Very confused, please help.

It’s the Westgate scheme that Eircom got planning for and sold to Rhatigan Developments.

the site which was masterplanned by Dublin City Council.
Prices start at 380k for 1 beds and from a whopping 520k for 2 beds. – Seems to me people are being asked to subsidise the 20% social and afforable housing that’s going in there.

Exactly, that was another thing that grabbed my attention when I saw the ad. For all the guff about living with other fellow ‘urbanites’ it seems like you’d have to be like the other lot in the Turbine, the ones who hang around with Ross O’Carroll Kelly, to afford the prices of the housing being built there.

Small two-beds in the area start at e450,000 so given the floor sizes there are bigger as far as I know e520k is optimistic but not out of place

No, its a little further north than the choco factory. THe cranes in inchicore are building some other appartments. THe ones in kilmainham are on he choco factory and the HSQ is the block just north of the SCR junction. Last time I looked the concrete stair cores were shooting up into the sky. leaving the construction on the floors below way behind.

The ad said starting from 520 in a rising interest rate environment for an apartment in a not so great area of town that won’t be ready for 2 years in a confined site where you’re likely to see construction going on for the next 6 years strikes me as the finest example that this market has gone loco……be afraid be very afraid
